Soil improvers and growing media - Determination of physical properties - Dry bulk density, air volume, water volume, shrinkage value and total pore space
This European standard describes an instrumental method for the routine determination of the physical properties, dry bulk density, water volume, air volume, shrinkage value and total pore space of soil improvers or growing media. This European standard is not suitable for those materials which are very coarse, which do not make proper capillary contact or those which are pre-formed and non-particulate and are of closed porosity. It is applicable to materials with particles not less than 25 mm and/or flexible fibres not less than 80 mm.
Bodenverbesserungsmittel und Kultursubstrate - Bestimmung der physikalischen Eigenschaften - Rohdichte (trocken), Luftkapazität, Wasserkapazität, Schrumpfungswert und Gesamtporenvolumen
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein gerätegestütztes Verfahren zur routine- mäßigen Bestimmung der physikalischen Eigenschaften Rohdichte (trocken), Wasserkapazität, Luftkapazität, Schrumpfungswert und Gesamtporenvolumen von Bodenverbesserungsmitteln oder Kultursubstraten fest. Diese Europäische Norm ist ungeeignet für sehr grobe Materialien, die keinen ausreichenden Kapillarkontakt ausbilden oder solche die vorgeformt und nicht gekörnt vorliegen und deren Poren verschlossen sind. Sie gilt für Materialien mit Teilchen bis 25 mm und/oder biegsame Fasern bis 80 mm.
Amendements du sol et supports de culture - Détermination des propriétés physiques - Masse volumique apparente sèche, volume d'air, volume d'eau, valeur de rétraction et porosité totale
Cette norme européenne spécifie une méthode instrumentale pour la détermination des propriétés physiques, à savoir masse volumique apparente sèche, volume d'eau, volume d'air, valeur de rétraction et porosité totale des amendements du sol et supports de culture. Cette norme européenne ne convient pas pour les matériaux très grossiers qui ne créent pas de phénomène de capillarité ni pour ceux qui sont préformés et sans agrégats distincts et dont les pores sont fermés. Elle est applicable aux matériaux ayant des particules <= 25 mm et/ou des fibres souples <= 80 mm.
